Description Andre Timmermann 2009-06-29 19:26:38 UTC
Please describe the problem:
The From-header is

From: example.com Test <test@example.com>

The UI shows:

From: example.comT <est test@example.com>

If you hit the reply-button, the address "est test@example.com" will be used by the UI. The source of the mail (CTRL+u) shows the correct line.

This happens if there is a name given with a "." in the from-header.

Steps to reproduce:
1. telnet to your mailserver on port 25 to send a mail
2. after the "data"-command, enter 
From: example.com Test <test@example.com>
3. receive the mail with evolution


Actual results:
The UI shows "From: example.comT <est test@example.com>"
If you hit the reply-button, the ui tries to send the mail to "est test@example.com"
If you hit "CTRL+u" you see the correct line in the mail-source.

Expected results:
The mail should be send to "test@example.com"

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
I have tried several versions of evolution (debian-package) this is reproductible everywhere.

Now I am using Evolution 2.22.3.1; Debian lenny/stable.

2.22 is obsolete and not supported anymore.
Can you attach an example message (remove any confidential data before) here so this can be tested with 2.26?
